This blog started as a way to inform myself and others about the candidates running for U.S. President next fall. I’d hoped to present clear, concise information about the candidates’ positions, while also reporting on current and relevant stories. Having spent the last several months working on this project, I had completed about half of the foundation I would have liked when I discovered that someone else had beaten me to the idea.
Sometimes it’s better to let other people do work for you (especially when they do it better). So rather than repeating for no reason, I’ll just say — go to Politifact.com and read up. They are doing basically what I wanted to do, even if their graphic design is a little* more terrible.
<—- “PF” stands for Politi Fact! Get it?
*Okay a lot more terrible, but the information is good.
As for this site, I don’t intend to abandon it. I am currently in the process of changing it. If it’s ever actually worth reading, I’ll make a small and unassuming announcement over on BR. Until then, don’t be like me (I’m feeling a strong wave of apathy at the moment towards ALL of the awful candidates). At first glance they all look the same, so you just have to keep glancing.
Keep glancing,
Jason
